Summary
The FV Player video plugin for WordPress has a stored cross-site scripting flaw: when the non-default comment shortcode parsing setting is enabled, it does not escape shortcode attributes in comments, so an attacker can plant a script that runs for anyone who plays the commented video. Because that includes administrators, the script can run in an administrator's session.

Read the original description
The FV Flowplayer Video Player WordPress plugin before 7.5.57.7212 does not escape shortcode attribute values embedded in comments before rendering them into the media player markup, allowing an unauthenticated visitor to store a script payload in a comment that executes in the session of any visitor, including an administrator, who plays the commented video, when the non-default comment-shortcode-parsing setting is enabled.
